It bugs me. Heavily religious people have always been strong in their faith. This is fine. Cool. Respectable even. What isn’t, is when they become stubborn in considering other ideas.
Such as science. Evolution has Hundreds upon hundreds of proven cases that support it.
Creationism has the bible. ...That’s it.
Creationists first said that God created EVERYTHING.
Then Darwin came along, and looking at the world and doing a little thinking came up with the idea that one species, through small changes from generation to generation, usually in order to better adapt to its environment, eventually changes into another seemingly totally different species.
Creationists hearing this were enraged. It was blasphemy....because it didn't support their religious belief that God created EVERYTHING.
So the idea didn't catch on for a while, then later with more and more evidence, the idea took hold. Then the Creationists, not wanting to be WRONG, alter their story.
Now they turn around and say it's "Intelligent Design".
That the evidence of evolution was put there.
Creationists: "Wheeww! We dodged a bullet there!"
What is "Creation Science"?
-A Oxymoron.
-A bad attempt to inject religion into science.
-A futile attempt by religious advocates at explaining away evolution and all the evidence that supports it.
What is it not?
-Supported by any evidence that doesn’t have a solid scientific explanation.
-Provable.
-Worth talking about anymore.
